@netkeep80 proposes to add the () operator for explicitly associating data in text markup. For example:
"11" = "1"("1")
The relative addressing operator already exists [], but it assumes addressing in a map, whereas the () operator would be used for defining tuples.
The advantage of using () is that the syntax precisely indicates which data is associated with each other. For example:
1(2(3)) != 1(2)(3)
We can use either the () operator or [], the main thing is that the semantics are clearly distinct in a single context. If we are talking about an API, we can use the () operator. If we are talking about a relationship name, we can use the [] operator, for example:
"abc[def][point[x]]"
"calc[window][x]"
